It will work very well. The way you've pleated it, you may see just a tiny sliver of red when you're standing and the kilt drapes normally.

If you "roll" the fabric just a bit more into the pleat, you wouldn't see any of the bright red band when the kilt wearer is standing normally. The appearance of the "flash of color" would be more surprising/dramatic when the kilt swishes.

Even 1/4"-1/2" difference in pleat location makes a difference!

If you have a fabric that doesn't take a permanent crease, you can test-pleat a few pleats with an iron to see how it will look.
